VESIT's T20 match !

Once upon a time, I had a lot of respect for the post of a General Secretary at VESIT. It undoubtedly was (and perhaps still is) the most challenging post that VESIT could offer to a student. A GS' requirements have not changed much over the past 3 years. Tremendous patience, a cool / calm head (remote traces of brains will do,too.) , an exhaustive network of friends and acquaintances ( so as to create suitable pools of workforces for various events ), great listening abilities, superb communication skills, good leadership, lots of talent, excellent public relations skills, great HR skills, and ofcourse ability to become an easy-to-use / efficient interface between the *&%^*& principal/administration and the students. But above all,  a leader is characterised by his/her sense of ethics, maturity and his/her ability to take the right decision over the best one. 
This year, a GS needs to have all of the above and more ! Whether one likes it or not, one simply must accept the fact that ISTE is the intended replacement for 4 societies, and hence is of utmost importance. ISTE needs to get incorporated into VESIT's activity circle. The GS, therefore, needs to have policy-making abilities, since the formative years are crucial to ISTE's deployment. I see only 3 people in my batch who can handle this situation, and sadly, none of them will contest tomorrow. There go all the good GSes !

Its just 5 days since college has begun, and there's a sudden, mad fight for this post. There's a sudden need to bring back all the lost honour, glory associated with the post. But hell, VESIT cannot survive with controversial or impulsive heads. I sincerely wish we had good people to step into Gore's shoes. Tomorrow's election will be no different from a T20 match, so nobody can make any predictions. VESIT definitely needs a GS who can atleast be half as good as Gayatri Kannan or Shreyas Gore were. The mood / atmosphere is not going to be too different from the Lok Sabha session during the Trust Vote.
I don't remember the last time VESIT had competition for the GS post in the Students' Council. What I do know is that it simply cannot have been as murky before. You can almost smell the tension on the fourth floor corridor. Never before have GS elections been so absurd, so crazy and so unpredictable. Catch the action, live, tomorrow at 1pm at VESIT. Known devil or unknown angel ? ( courtesy : Nadi )- Watch the two warriors battle it out !
I realise I have remained completely neutral in this support-'so-and-so' game. So it turns out I might be 'Election Chair' for tomorrow. I sincerely hope I remain alive to continue blogging :-)
And I hope atleast now people will believe me when I say, for the last time, I DO NOT intend to contest. ( I shall conduct.) Peace out :-)
